Modified car insurance
#1
The best insurance ive found so far is Brentacre. You cannot get an online quote, phonecall only. But the cheapest quote I got through any comparison website for mine (with clean licence, 5yrs no claims) was £904 for protected no claims, fully comp. But went with Brentacre for the same (with £500 audio cover) for a total of £387 lol!
Google them if interested people

Who's Black Mark?
Isn't that a bit racist blaming him for your insurance costs?

At least weve now got some one to blame. I hate that black mark, costing me a fortune.

They wanted £970 for me on a HDi with 'management changes', exhaust and gti brakes.... Needless to say I went with another insurer for a 3rd of the price. Wink

Actually quite surprised that Mr Rowell has not made an appearance yet with all this talk of Black Mark! lmao

I'm with Flux for the second year in a row now, not long had my renewal, and they came up cheaper than anyone else i tried. Didnt try Brentacre though, so might try them when renewal comes round again next year. Wink

Brentacre are shit!

They wanted £1800 for my old black 306 (here we go)

Told them about pump mods and big blower ect told them it was running round 130hp

When I asked them about the stupid price they said its down to the power and age but yet I could insure a 150bhp mondeo for £600 they went all quiet and didn't know why to say when I told them f*cking lady gardens must have been because it was black

That's because they don't offer comprehensive head gasket cover Wink


I've found them very reasonably priced when applying for quotes TBF. Only reason I am not with them is my police auto renewed and I never bothered to swap it over Doh

Greenlight will only cover you if your cars worth lots of money, isn't pov spec, isn't a BMW and if you meet their very stringent criteria.

I was told they couldn't insure me unless my car was worth £1500.....who's 306 is worth £1500 these days!? lol

Thats not sale value though tom. Thats value to rebuild that car to that spec so you can very easily get it to that price with the car and a set of shocks

How much do your shocks cost!? Confused

What did you guys value your cars at then?

Mines valued at 3.9k which is what it would cost to rebuild it based on the purchase price of the car. Obviously i wouldn't get that much to sell it but its about how much it would cost you to buy all your modified parts new.

Ah I see, makes sense then!

No idea what my 'mods' would cost new tbh, powerflow catback is probably £100? GTi brakes £150? Remap £70? Still gonna be nowhere near £1500 for me I guess lol.
